Spokesman Hippo Already, during the match between Finland and Lithuania, he announced that players may take longer than usual before they come to the press.
– It may take a couple of minutes to return from the booth due to an extra guest, Taatila said.
It was not very difficult to bet the “dignity” was not because the President of the Republic Alexander Stubb followed the fight that ended in Finland’s three -point defeat right from the edge of the parquet.
– He thanked and wished a lot of the good. Now these real games are just beginning. There was a lot of good in the match, Mikael Jantunen told after the meeting.
– Stubb thanked for the basket phenomenon and how we bring fans. It was really great that the president came. And it certainly gave everyone extra motivation. It was a great moment.
Miikka Muurinen In turn, he had not registered the visit at all.
Head coach Lassi Tuovi Thanks Stubb for his great speech.
– He knows how to use his word pretty nicely. He told what the atmosphere was and what it was like for people to look at such a fight, Tuovi said.
– There will be losses and they belong to sports. It’s a good idea to focus on the next match when you can no longer. Even those words gave us quite a lot to Wednesday.
Then Susijengi will play the gold favorite of the Tampere opening round against Germany.
There is no terribly much expected of that struggle.
